In the comic drama, the audience meets Bob and Jennifer and their new neighbors, John and Pony. These two suburban couples have more in common than their identical homes and their shared last names, though. The Realistic Joneses was nominated for three 2014 Drama League Awards, for Outstanding Production Of A Broadway or Off-Broadway Play, as well as Distinguished Performance Awards for Michael C. Hall and Tracy Letts.

“When I am reading plays, I am always drawn to those that have the ability to surprise,” director Gerry Gerringer was quoted as saying. “Scripts that reveal the characters’ flaws and pain through the powerful mixture of humor and dramatic tension, I find to be the most true to life. The Realistic Joneses is such a play. I’m sure that audiences will find this odd, quirky play as engaging, poignant, and thought-provoking as I do.”

The shows will be at 8 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, and 3 p.m. on Sundays. Tickets are $23-26. For details, visit www.sccat.org.
